Attendance Matters
The United Nation Article 28 states ‘every child has the right to have a primary education’. We are linking our attendance performance to this article.
We want our children to have the best possible education to give them the best chance in life. If your children aren’t in school we can’t give them this opportunity and can’t give them the opportunity to ‘be the best they can be.’

Online Safety – Social Media Scams
We would like to share the guide at this link with you once again. Many of our children are reporting that they are allowed to use TikTok even though it has an age rating of 13. We are becoming more and more aware of the risks associated with TikTok, alongside other social media platforms, and cannot stress enough the importance of protecting the children from these sites and monitoring their online usage. If you need any support, please don’t hesitate to ask us.
